They severely tortured this man after the 1997 coup plot was discovered.

mansakhalifa:
So, she's left Atletico?

Wow... I haven't been following up on a lot of things lately.

She was signed to Washington Spirit, but she went on loan to Australia and to Atletico Madrid. She has now left Washington Spirit and plays in China, but the foreign players that play in China have not been allowed back into the country because of COVID-19.

FIFA interviewed her about her journey through 4 continents. You can read the interview here

Francisca Ordega once played for this same Atletico Madrid female team.

Yeah. She was on loan from Washington Spirit for a few months in 2017/2018.

Tweet by the Cameroonian minister of Public Service Reform.

Ajara Njoya Nchout joins Atletico Madrid.

Cameroonian female football star, Ajara Njoya Nchout has agreed a deal in principle to join Atletico Madrid in the Liga Ibedrola. The move comes after she announced her departure from Norwegian side Valeranga.

Njoya now becomes the second high profile African player to join a major European club after Asisat Oshoala. This move will give her the opportunity to challenge Oshoala's position at the top of African female football. It will be the biggest challenge to Oshoala's position since fellow Cameroonian, Gaelle Enganamouit took the world by storm in 2015.


Njoya Ajara @AjaraNjoya

Today I leave Valerenga with a heart full of sadness at leaving a family, but with a heart full of joy at a duty accomplished with all the titles won. Thanks to Valerenga and the fans.

Mavrick2012:
Shehu mallam,all these talks doesn't negate the fact that your topic was totally misleading.
Next time, state the microscopic part of kaduna.
Just like saying FIRE IN LAGOS instead of FIRE IN LAGOS ISLAND.

If i may ask, where do you reside in kaduna?

You speak so much about my dimmed apprehension of English,and i have never claimed perfection of the language,but i have a question,
Is it "going round and round in circleS" or going round in circle?

Now it's clear that engaging you is a waste of time because you cannot comprehend simple texts. There was absolutely nothing misleading about my post because the exact location was stated, just as there's absolutely nothing misleading about these articles:

When CNN writes, "July 7th London Bombing", does that mean that the whole of London was bombed?

https://www.cnn.com/2013/11/06/world/europe/july-7-2005-london-bombings-fast-facts/

When the BBC writes, "France Attack", does that mean that the attack took place in every single part of France?
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-54729957

I asked you a question and again you ran away from it. I wrote "Massive fire on Lagos Island", does that mean that the entire Lagos Island was on fire? (I know that you are completely incapable of answering tge questions above).

You simply do not understand English at all and it shows quite clearly.

I guess that I might still be able to help and redeem you. If you have never heard of "Go round and round in circles", then please read here and educate yourself. Make sure you read everything.
https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/go-round-in-circles-go-around-in-circles


People, including me, have always framed headlines this way and will always frame headlines this way and there's nothing you can do about it.

Four dead as train derails in Spain.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/09/passenger-train-derails-spain-porrino

I guess by your silly logic the UK Guardian are saying that the train derailled in the whole of Spain.

What you need to know about the Australia bushfires.
https://www.theverge.com/2020/1/3/21048891/australia-wildfires-koalas-climate-change-bushfires-deaths-animals-damage

I guess by your logic it was the whole of Australia that was on fire.


The BBC, CNN and The Guardian do not know how to frame a headline. It's only Mavrick2012 that knows how to frame a headline.

Everybody that read the post understood it except for you and it shows that the problem is with you and not the post.

It's clear that engaging with you is a waste of time and I will not continue to waste my time. I will not read or respond to any of your replies any more because it's clear that you don't know anything and you don't want to learn.


Once again I leave you with the article (maybe a miracle will happen and you will comprehend it this time). If it upsets you, that's your problem.

Goodbye.

When Muslims outnumbered Christians at Christmas service in a Kaduna church

ON DECEMBER 25, 2020. 9:55 PM IN NEWS

By Ibrahim HassanWuyo

The General Overseer of Christ’s Evangelical and Life Intervention Church, Kaduna, Pastor Yohanna Buru, has said that Muslims in large number which included women, children, youth and Islamic scholars were in a southern Kaduna church to felicitate with their Christian friends and relatives during the Christmas festivities

The cleric said that every year, Muslims from various states in the North do come to the church and celebrate Christmas with them.

“Even this year, despite the outbreak of Coronavirus pandemic and economic recession, Muslims in large number visited the church and joined us during the Christmas service to foster peace and unity,” he said.

Buru said this year’s Christmas sermon was focused on religious tolerance, forgiveness, better understanding, peace, love and unity among Nigerians, and the need for both Muslim and Christian clerics to be more committed through prayers for the nation, for peace, stability and the progress of the country;

Muslims scholars, traditional title holders, peace ambassadors, stakeholders on peacebuilding from Katsina, Kano, Sokoto, Zamfara, Zaria, Jos and others from local Government areas in Kaduna state, attended the service.

He said the Muslims that attended the church service were from all the groups of Muslims which include Sunnih, Darikar- Tijjaniyya and Muslim Shiites.

“They ate and drank with us, also we prayed for the country together, donated their offering during the servce like every other Christian that attended the morning service did,” he said.

He said the church really appreciated the presence of “our Muslim brethren and sistren that came in large number from various places to join us in celebrating Christmas.”

According to him, “last year, the number of Muslims tripled the Christians, and even this year, the number increased.”

“We are happy seeing our brothers and sisters joining us in today’s Christmas service, and this shows clearly that peace and unity are gradually coming back to the region after series of set back as a result of ethnoreligious, political killing that brought so many backwardnesses to the entire 19 northern states of the region,” he said.

“We must join hands together and pray to Almighty God to bring an end to corruption, banditry, terrorism, robbery, kidnapping and unnecessary killing of human beings in the region.”

“Our education, agriculture, health, and economy are facing a serious threat due to insecurity and other challenges bedevilling peace, stability in the entire region.”

“Until our leaders from the entire region including former heads of state/and various religious leaders and traditional title holders with scholars from various tertiary institutes come together and find out ways and solution to the current situation, that’s when the region would regain its lost integrity.”

In his remarks, a traditional title holder from Kurmin Mashi in Kaduna state, Mallam Rabo Abdullahi, said “we must be grateful to Almighty God for giving us the opportunity to be here today for Christmas celebration.

He called on Muslims and Christians to be peace ambassadors in order to promote peace and stability in the country.

While wishing everyone safe journey back home, he called on Muslims and Christians to pray for the Nigerian Army on peace mission all over the world.

Meanwhile, civil war has broken out amongst FC Barcelona Femeni supporters over Asisat Oshoala.


Asisat uploaded pictures and videos of her and some other people celebrating at a club in Lagos. It appears that someone was celebrating an event and Oshoala was "spraying" the person.


Some Barcelona fans say that the coach must talk to Oshoala and that she must be benched because she went to a club during the COVID-19 pandemic. Barcelona Femeni has a historic match against Atletico Madrid at the Nou Camp on January 6th and they say that she should not be allowed to play that match.


It will be the first time that Barca Femeni play at the Nou Camp. They played against Atletico Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano in 2019 and that game set a record attendance for female football.

Some Barca fans had said that Oshoala should not have been allowed to go to Nigeria because of the COVID-19 situation in the country (one fan said that it was worse than Brazil).

However, some other fans say that Barca Femeni captain, Vicki Losada, was also seen at a restaurant in Dubai during the break and nobody is complaining about that. They say that Losada and Kheira Hamraoui both travelled and were seen in public places during the Christmas break and nobody is complaining about that, so why are people complaining about Oshoala?

End

Even more pictures.

More pictures.

Asisat Oshoala in conjunction with the Asisat Oshoala Foundation and the UBA Foundation has provided a borehole for the use of the Itumoja Community in Ikorodu.

Oshoala, who is from Ikorodu, has also been involved in other charitable causes with her foundation, such as the annual Asisat Oshoala Football Clinic for secondary school girls and the feeding of needy people last year.

Mavrick2012:
mallam,stop toying with mere semantics.
My point is simple,,stop applying isolated cases in generalizing.simple.
You keep talking about understanding English,yet u apparently toddling in English.
Lol

OK, you've just shown that you don't understand English at all, that's why you are going round and round in circles.

Where did I generalise?? Something happened in Kaduna and I wrote that it happened in Kaduna, did I write that it happened in the whole of Kaduna?? Is the name of the church not written there?? Wasn't an article provided that gave the exact specifics of what happened?? Can you read and comprehend simple texts at all?? Why is comprehension so difficult for you??

How can you claim to understand English and say, "Not Kaduna" when something happened in Kaduna?? Is that the correct way to say don't generalise?? If it's not Kaduna, then where is it?? If a massive fire occurred in a wharehouse on Lagos Island and I wrote "Massive fire on Lagos Island", does that mean that the whole of Lagos Island was on fire?? Do you understand English at all??

Wike to re-impose COVID-19 lockdown in Rivers, January

ON DECEMBER 27, 20206:58 PM

By Davies Iheamnachor

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has hinted that he would re-impose COVID-19 lockdown in the state beginning from January following the recent upsurge in the number of coronavirus cases in the State.

Wike according to a statement signed by his Special Assistant on Media, Kelvin Ebiri, gave a hint of the imminent second phase of lockdown amid rising cases of COVID-19 during the church thanksgiving service in celebration of the 90th birthday of Mrs Priscilla Nwanediye Mark, at the St. Martin’s Anglican Church, Omagwa in Ikwerre Local Government on Sunday.

Wike regretted the refusal of most churches and markets in the state to enforce the compulsory wearing of face mask in adherence to COVID-19 protocol, noting that the state government had initially relaxed the restriction on the number of persons who worship in churches which have often been violated.

He noted that with the second wave of COVID-19, he would this week announce new stringent measures to check the spread of COVID-19 cases in the State,

He said: “When you go to some churches, they don’t wear a mask. Go to market, they don’t wear a mask. They believe COVID is not real. It’s not real because it has not happened to you; nobody had died whom you know. When somebody has died and the person was close to you, you will know that COVID is real.

“So, it is real and I want to appeal to all of you that we have to be more strict now because the second wave is more dangerous than the first wave. It’s very, very dangerous. I know how many people we have lost since the second wave started.”

Governor Wike urged the Bishop of Diocese of Ikwerre to prevail on members of all the churches under his jurisdiction to always wear their face mask.

“If you don’t comply, I have no choice, but to shut down the churches; Pentecostal, Catholic, Anglican. I have no choice because when you have it, who spends the money? It is the state that treats. So, we need to use the money for some other things, but not for this. Let us discipline ourselves and know that COVID-19 is real. Let nobody tell you that there is nothing like COVID. It’s real.”

The governor urged Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, leaders in Ikwerre Local government area to use Mrs Mark’s 90th birthday to work in unison for the development to the area.

He also used the occasion to extol the chairman of Ikwerre local government, Samuel Nwanosike for his commitment to the development of the area.

Meanwhile, the Bishop, Diocese of Ikwerre, Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Right Reverend Blessing Enyindah, stressed the need for people to always acknowledge God’s mercies in their lives.

Enyindah in his sermon titled “Thanking God for His Mercy”, observed that this was an era where people lived below the lifespan of 50 years, said it was the mercy of God that made Mrs Priscilla Mark attained 90 years.

you ended up saying nothing.
Little wonder people in the south accuse we northerners as being illiterates.
Don Allah,it's okay,i don't have muscle for this.lol

Do you even understand English at all??

I said something happened in Kaduna and you said "That doesn't make it Kaduna". OK, if it's not Kaduna, what is it??

Now you are trying to run away.

Kai!

Yeah I know, but they are not in the list on the first page.

Mavrick2012:
point out where i said it's not kaduna.
That you don't apprehend my drift surprises me

Comprehension is a serious problem here. Something happened in Kaduna and I wrote that it happened in Kaduna and then you wrote the nonsense below because you believed that I should not write Kaduna. You wrote, "Op,the fact that some 20 people,or so, celebrate Christmas in one corner of kaduna doesn't make it "kaduna".lol". OK, if it doesn't make it Kaduna, then it happened in Pluto. Maybe that would make you happy.

Mavrick2012:
Kai, you guys ehn,the way you generalise and create wrong impression ehn.
Look at the way op recklessly applied the word "kaduna", you will think it's all over the place.
I was born, brought up and am still living in kaduna.
90% of kaduna Muslims consider it Haram to celebrate Christmas,uptil yesterday Christmas.

Even the remaining 10% that celebrate Christmas are Yoruba, igala and other none hausa Muslims.

Op,the fact that some 20 people,or so, celebrate Christmas in one corner of kaduna doesn't make it "kaduna".lol
